"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. I congratulate Hon. Jaldesa and Mr Michael Nzomo Mbithuka – but especially Hon. Jaldesa who will be the Chairperson. This is a very sensitive time in Kenya, especially the season we are in where GBV has become the order of the day. Many young women are being harassed and killed. I have a lot of faith in Hon. Rehema Jaldesa, who is a well-known leader, a woman and a mother who is passionate about anything to do with female leaders and women in the country. I know very well that with her zeal, she will transform that Commission. For them to be relevant, effective and bring down the injustices that women go through, we must allocate enough funds so that they can do what they are supposed to do. It would be unfair for me to sit down without mentioning the issue of people who are speaking negatively about women leaders. Everywhere you go, there are men leaders who criticise women just because they are women. They keep on saying that so-and-so is a woman. We are proud women leaders of Kenya. We thank God for people like our Leader of the Majority Party who always supports women. For those cowardly men who can only talk about our gender, let us face each other in the campaigns and elections. But do not use our gender against us. We were created as women, and we are very proud women leaders. I support the Motion."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. First, I rise to congratulate our former colleague, Hon. Rehema Jaldesa. She happens to be my neighbour because my constituency neighbours Isiolo County. I met Hon. Jaldesa way back before we came to this House. She has been a true reflection of a human rights and gender defender. I have no doubt that she will bring in new energy, having worked with other partners and non-governmental organisations. She can even fundraise to support the work of the Commission. However, as a Government, we cannot always be looking for funds from donors. It is incumbent upon us to support that Commission, so that we can depart from the sentiments by the Leader of the Majority Party that, that Commission is useless. I am sure that Commission"

"content": "is not useless. They have made some strides, albeit small, but we are sure that Hon. Jaldesa and her colleagues will bring changes to that Commission. I also want to speak about gender-based violence. We have witnessed many femicide cases. Last week, a young girl was slashed like cabbage in Nanyuki by her boyfriend. It is high time that we spoke to our children. Religious organisations should come out clearly and speak about that matter. It must end. Our girls must be protected. We are all leaders. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am proud because you are seated in that Chair and you are overseeing the debate in this House. You were once a nominated Member of Parliament, and so was I. I want to remind everybody who cares to listen that the former President was once a nominated Member of Parliament. Insulting and bad-mouthing women when they are nominated to Parliament must stop. I want to urge our President to continue nominating more women. One day, those nominated women, including Hon. Millie Odhiambo, will ascend to the presidency, God willing. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the nominees. Hon. Jaldesa was my colleague and neighbour. My constituency borders Isiolo County. I know her very well. We both served on the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure. We have been together on occasion during social functions for our two counties. I trust she has all the leadership qualities. There is a misconception that gender is only about women. I have been to the Ministry of Public Service, Gender and Affirmative Action and had discussions with the Principal Secretary of the State Department for Gender and Affirmative Action. She agreed with me that the boy-child has been neglected. Equality also encompasses the rights of the boy-child and men. I want to urge Madam Jaldesa and her team to particularly focus on uplifting the standards of the boy-child in this country. I believe in equal opportunities for everybody. There are many available opportunities if we all work towards equality. The issue of equality has been misused. It is now time for Hon. Jaldesa and her team to focus on the same. There is a lot of violence against women, which I am against. There is a lot of unspoken violence against the boy-child. Every day in the newspapers, you always read stories about people molesting young boys. That is a matter that needs to be given a lot of attention. There is an increase in cases of female genital mutilation, which has made a comeback. I want to urge this House and the Commission to start dealing with that. In my Buuri Constituency, we are having serious discussions with churches, elders and men of good faith. I am a father of two beautiful girls. I also have a wife. I would like my girls, my neighbours’ girls, and the girls in my community to be safe. Hon. Jaldesa, you have your work cut out for you. We want to see you moving and championing the rights of every citizen in terms of equality and, more so, the rights of the boy- child. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
